Two arrested after wreck east of Boise, but for other things

Melanie J. Prince and Irven R. Adams escaped with just minor injuries Tuesday afternoon after rolling the vehicle they were riding in on Interstate 84 near the Blacks Creek Rest Area, the Idaho State Police said.

Both Boise residents were arrested, however, for offenses unrelated to the wreck.

Prince, 41, the owner of the 2005 Subaru Forester involved in the accident, was charged with felony possession of marijuana, two misdemeanor counts of possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia.

She and Adams, 35, were taken to Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center in Boise, where they were treated and released. Prince was taken to the Ada County Jail, while Adams was allowed to leave. A few hours later, however, he also landed in jail.

Adams was accused of trying to steal a vehicle from a parking lot at the intersection of South Orchard Street and Franklin Road. He was arrested by Boise Police and charged with misdemeanor unlawful entry.

Troopers investigating the crash are unsure who was driving at the time of the wreck, according to an ISP report.

The vehicle was headed east when it went off the right shoulder and struck a utility box. The Subaru then went crossed the eastbound lanes into the median and rolled, state police said.

Emergency crews had to cut through the roof of the car and take off the passenger door to remove Prince and Adams.

Prince was arraigned Wednesday in Ada County Magistrate Court. Bail was set at $15,000. She is scheduled to appear in court April 6 for a preliminary hearing.

Adams is on parole for a 2004 felony conviction for possession of a controlled substance in Ada County.
